Montaudon:
Today MONTAUDON is one of the rare champagne houses still owned entirely by the founding family.
The HOUSE OF MONTAUDON is located right at the heart of REIMS, e few steps away from the Cathedral. The fermentation room, storerooms and two levels of cellars (where bottles for several year’s supply are stocked) are
sited in this well integrated centre.
The MONTAUDON company owns a vineyardof 45 hectares

When first poured, the wine exhibits a rush of good, small bubbles creating a soft, true champagne-style effervescence. A nice straw-yellow color with an aroma of almonds, filberts and a touch of desiccated, toasted coconut flake. Flavors have good presence if not particularly subtle in tone. A decent, sound champagne.

Smoky aromas of baked bread, nuts, caramel, earth and mushroom. Bit, toasty and full; shows a slight sweet/sour disjointedness but its round, silky texture makes it very easy to drink. Doesnrsquo;t have quite the vibrancy or complexity for 90 points, but this rather suave wine boasts very good precision of flavor and a sublet, dry finish.
